Tutoring at the UWC
 
Tutoring at the UWC begins with you.We are here to answer your questions and make suggestions for your writing. Much of the work we can do, though, depends on students who are prepared. When you visit the Writing Center, please come ready to ask and answer questions about the work. Please bring a copy of the assignment and any work you've done so far. Tutoring sessions typically:
 
  • Last 30-40 minutes - maybe a little more or less
  • Focus on two or three main writing issues
  • Improve your writing skills as you talk one-on-one with a tutor
  • Involve reading aloud and brainstorming
  • Conclude with a short evaluation and reiteration of what you need to do next
  • May lead to follow-up sessions
  • Respect the confidentiality of your visit. A consultant will send a report form to your instructor only at your request.
